a hundred billion dollars worth of journalism

A small Turkish owned Maltese registered cargo vessel has just collided with a huge commercial cargo vessel in the English channel.
The Turkish vessel weighs something around 6000 tons while the cargo ship weighs a colossal 179,000 tons.
The Turkish vessel was carrying a hugely toxic highly inflammable substance called Pygas or Pyrogas.
Sky News is culpably incorrect in reporting that the Turkish vessel was carrying gasoline.
I will wager Sky News is also culpably incorrect in reporting that the larger vessel struck the smaller one.
The salient feature of this story is that the smaller ship, carrying a dangerously toxic chemical in dangerous amounts, is Turkish owned.
My analysis is that Al Qaeda is now trying to engineer environmental disasters by staging such seaborne collisions.
More precisely stated: This was an Al Qaeda attack on the British Isles and Western Europe.
I would remind you of similar improbable accidents off the coast of Arabia and outside the Indian port of Mumbai earlier this year.
Fuel and toxic chemical carrying ships are equipped with radar and global positioning satellite guidance systems.
It's very difficult, almost impossible, for them to run into other ships by accident.
I would remind you of the still unexplained failure of a dam at a chemical factory in Hungary a few days ago and the consequent spillage of lethal pollutants over a vast swathe of Hungarian and Central European countryside, a toxic "accident" which now threatens to poison one of the continent's main waterways the River Danube.
I would further remind you of this year's as yet unexplained explosions on oil rigs and oil supply facilities in China and off the coast of the Southern United States.
I would also point to the simultaneous arson attacks on forests in Russia and Europe during the Summer and in Australia last Summer.
Al Qaeda really has been busy.
To date no report of the Turkish ship collision, other than this one, has mentioned the possibility that the collision is a Muslim Jihadi attack.

Maurice Nelligan is dead.
He styled himself as some sort of a doctor.
He is currently being eulogised in Ireland's liberal leftist atheistic media who claim that as well as being some sort of a doctor, he was also some sort of a Christian.
It's always a bad sign when the cabal that is Ireland's cravenly irreligious and bigotedly anti Catholic Independent Newspapers, The Irish Times and RTE, start praising supposed Christians.
The ones they praise are never really that Christian.
Maurice Nelligan's supposed Christianity served the Irish Times well in that by allowing them to publish a column he wrote in return for cash money, he helped the Irish Times editorial board conceal their venal Marxian detestation of the Son of the Hebrew God.
I mean I don't want to go casting no aspoyshuns.
My assessment of Maurice Nelligan requires one sentence.
He was a plush bottomed self satisfied self worshipping doctor.
If you see inherent merit in any of those things, then you should join with those who praise him.
The media are praising Maurice Nelligan for sundry supposed accomplishments during his medical career.
They are also praising him for his column in the Irish Times which they say was an important piece of advocacy on behalf of hospital patients.
For all his supposed advocacy on behalf of patients there are some glaring gaps in his supposedly courageous moral stances.
For instance.
He never condemned the growing and now exponential power of the Marxian atheistic trade union movement within Irish hospitals.
He never condemned the ridiculous pay increases our corrupt kleptocratic Fianna Fail government were giving to doctors and nursies and health board staff.
These pay rises along with the electoral bribe pay rises Fianna Fail paid to teachers and police officers and civil servants, have done more to bankrupt the country than the criminal thieving asset stripping piracy practiced by Sean Fitzpatrick, Gillian Bowler and all the other bankers.
(Wankers surely? - Ed note.)
Maurice Nelligan never pointed out that the wages being paid to Irish doctors and nursies for their supremely lackadaisical services were making it all but impossible to provide any adequate medical services to the general public.
Maurice Nelligan never highlighted the attempts by nurses and doctors to exclude volunteer workers from helping with handicapped and mentally retarded patients, something the nurses and doctors were doing simply because the nurses and doctors were intent on capitalising all care for handicapped and mentally retarded people, in effect engineering a situation whereby Christians can no longer help out in hospitals, while handicapped and mentally retarded people are deprived of the healing balm of pure love because the only people let within an asses roar of them are wrap the red flag round me Bolshevick Marxist atheists from the nursies and doctors trade unions.
He never pointed out that the present generation of nursies and doctors were paid vastly more cash in real terms than their Mammies and Daddies had been, each one owning more cars and more houses than their Mammies and Daddies ever dreamed possible, and most tellingly taking more holidays and doing vastly less work than their Mammies or Daddies would ever have dared.
He never condemned cosmetic surgeons for their barbaric profiteering from the insecurity of women.
He did precious little to stop life in test tubes culture, condom culture, contraceptive pill culture, and abortion culture.
He never condemned bitch nurses treating patients like shite.
He never condemned, or highlighted, or even hinted at, the work to rule style behaviour of nursies whereby hospitals full of beds were being deemed to be without beds because the nursies were insisting on particular staffing levels for each bed on each ward and were simply refusing to allow patients into those beds unless their jobsworth style demands were met.
He always pretended that the waiting lists for important operations were caused by insufficient funding from our kleptocratic government rather than by the work to rule style behaviour from nursies and doctors.
He crassly concealed the inherent illogicality and the inevitable collapse built into socialist medicine whereby exponentially overpaid trade unionised staff continue to give an ever diminishing quality of service while demanding an ever increasing rate of remuneration for an ever more inhumane quality of care.
He never indicted the psycho bitch nurses and doctors who have delighted in humiliating people on the wards, both patients and visitors for the past thirty years.
He never blew the whistle on the dechristianisation of the health service.
He never blew the whistle on the deaths of 200 children in Health Board custody over the past decade.
And you know what folks.
If I knew about those deaths, he knew about them.
He never indicted medical professionals, nursies and doctors, for their deliberate indifference to citizens at the Accident And Emergency wards where 70, 80 and 90 year old patients were being routinely left on trolleys or sitting in chairs, waiting for life saving treatment for days.
As far as he was concerned every problem in the health service was down to a lack of free money from the heros of Fianna Fail who were, truth be told, already drowning the health service in cash which they didn't have and were borrowing against future generations of Irish people from international banks, who as it now transpires, didn't have it either.
He never condemned the Health Boards for quietly sneaking Irish children over to England for abortions after those children had been raped by Health Board staff in Health Board care.
He never condemned the crass mercantilist atheism of Health Board chief Brendan Drumm.
He never condemned the Health Boards for the murders and child rapes and violations taking place in dechristianised Irish hospitals, in particular the cases involving Nurse Mulholland and her friends butchering citizens in Naas Hospital, the cases involving Michael Shine sexually abusing children in Drogheda Hospital, and the cases involving Michael Neary and another doctor (who is now on the run in Scotland) deliberately maiming women on the operating table in Drogheda Hospital.
Maurice Nelligan's supposed advocacy for patients was always about demanding more money from our morally dessicated Fianna Fail government, a government too amoral to say no to him, extorting through faux compassion ever larger tranches of readies for incompetent loutish lazy lousy and cruel nursies and doctors who were already wallowing in a sea of cash while humiliating patients on a daily basis.
I do not see anything to admire in the life or journalistic advocacy of Maurice Nelligan.

nameday

people like years in the city streets
throng in the rain it falls like centuries
the fall of man is never so complete
the fall of night never such a certainty
clocks are striking somewhere down the quays
 
as i am struck my thirtieth hour done
takes wing like a soul circles and is gone
alone amid the crowd i hear the rain
drum the outright tragedy of man
birth is death divided by a span

a teachable moment

"Hands up whover goes to church every Sunday."
Only a few children put up their hands.
My eight year old nephew John did not put up his hand.
Afterwards he told his mother about the teacher's question and about how he'd kept his hand down.
"Why didn't you put up your hand?" wondered his mother in mildly consternated bemusement.
"Because we missed Mass a while ago," said the nephew.
"But John I've taken you to Mass every week since you were born except for once last month when you had a football match," exclaimed his mother.
"Teacher asked us to put up our hands if we go ever Sunday," insisted John quietly.

just a closer rant with thee

Evening at the Dominican Church in Newbridge.
I am pewing in the key of life.
That is to say I am in the midst of my Holy James routine, top pew, front row, centre, ethereal glow, etc etc.
Tis epic I tells ee.
I am tapped on the shoulder.
Two Kilcullen people Kevin and May Baines are standing there.
"This is a hard time for the Church," says Kevin.
I shake my haloed head.
"Not at all," I announce warmly. "This isn't hard. We haven't been asked to bear the stripes. We haven't been whipped in the streets. We haven't been asked to wear the crown of thorns. We haven't been asked to have nails hammered into our hands and feet. We haven't been asked to hang on the cross. We haven't been asked to take a spear in the side. We haven't even had to take a nice quick bullet. Or get blown up. Or burnt alive. We haven't been asked to live under The Penal Laws, or Nazism, or Communism, or the Muslims. Really we've barely suffered at all. Because all we've been asked to do is to live through a time when we are ridiculed and calumniated on a daily basis by cosmically mediocre sub-Bolshevick communist atheistic scoundrels in Independent Newspapers, The Irish Times and RTE. All we've been asked to do is to endure inuendo laden falsehoods from debased leering clowns in Independent Newspapers, The Irish Times and RTE, calling us and our Church child abusers. All we've been asked to do is to be on the receiving end of slander and derision from abjectly gormless charlatans in Independent Newspapers, The Irish Times and RTE, the self same idiots who have progenitored, propagated, committed and concealed more child abuse than any supposed Christians at any time in any history, progenitored because their own porno culture causes it, propagated because their attempted exploitation of infantile sexualities via the dissemination of salacious marketing and programming materials has expanded the rate of sexual incontinence exponentially throughout the general populace, committed because in spite of what they pretend there's no family in Ireland untouched by this, and concealed simply by virtue of their championing the most egregious lie of all that most sex abuse cases occur at the hands of religious people, fostering this lie I say, while giving negligible reportage to the fact that sex abuse in our country exists within every sector of society and runs rampant particularly in those institutions where there is an absence of believing Christians such as Health Boards, Sports Clubs, Hospitals, Families, parliament and Schools. No. this isn't a hard time for the Church. All we've been asked to do is put up with a bit of ridicule from people who themselves are congenitally ridiculous. All we've been asked to do is listen to lies about ourselves from people who are slaves to the kingdom of lies. All we've been asked to do is to experience the usurpation of Judgement and the ascription of guilt to ourselves at the hands of criminals whose criminality is immeasurable and who in any decent society would be Judges of nothing. We haven't been asked to bleed or to die or to go into exile. It's not that hard what we've been asked to put up with. Actually it's quite easy compared to what Catholics have suffered in the name of Jesus throughout history."

dances with waitresses

"What are you thinking?" asked Natassia in a seductive voice.
"I'm wondering if Vladimir Putin is going to reabsorb Latvia into a resovietised Russia," sez me.
"He isn't," promised she.
"Well that's good," sez me.
"He's only going to take the parts with Russian speakers."
"What?"
"He's not going to take all of Latvia."
"But you're telling me he's going to take some of it?"
"Yes, the bits that are ours."
"And Russians know about this?"
"Of course we do."
"And you're not afraid?"
"Oh you don't understand."
"I understand that if Putin starts taking over countries on Russia's borders, then the friendship between Russia and the rest of the world is over. Your friends will be Iran and Al Qaeda and the Muslims and that's it. And you know what? Eventually the Muslims will turn on you just like Hitler did. Because they're nobody's friends."

Sky News Presenter Blondie MacBim: "The Home Secretary has warned of possible attacks on Britain by Irish terrorists."
 
James Healy: "At last we've found a terrorist threat which the heros of Sky News are willing to refer to in terms of its ethnicity. We've had ten years of Al Qaeda trying to take over the world without anyone at Sky News even so much as mentioning Muslim Terrorists. Hilarious no."
